A member asked:
Is 44 high for male liver alt panel? there is no history of drinking
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Worth follow-up: This is a bit high and worth repeating. Heavy exercise can raise it, but instead you might be allergic to a medication, or have a smoldering liver problem (metabolic syndrome, hepatitis b or c, hemochromatosis, wilson's, autoimmunity) that could be easily treated but serious if ignored.
